but if this was not real close, they both wouldn't be here all the time. and i think what romney needs to do, the question is people wonder does he understand their problems? and when is he out there, he touches them. he just has got to touch as many people as he can. that's why he has to keep coming back. and the more he is back here, the better he will do. if he continues to have a message that says one basic thing. i understand your problems, and i believe i can fix them. >> bill: here is the problem with that, that barack obama was in ohio today and barack obama is a good campaigner and he touches people too and look you have got the cleveland, that's going to go democrat. always goes democrat there okay? and then you have got, you know, the certain republic precincts but i'm surprised. i really am. i thought that mitt romney would be doing much much better in ohio. is it about television advertising? is it television advertising equal there? is there another variable that i don't understand? >> well, you said it in your talking points. people need to

looking at both of these scoops now, the issue here is that romney and ryan are pitching something to conservative audiences or conservative donors that's different than what they are pitching the country as a whole, or is it they are pitching the same thing but use blunter language? >> i think it's just blunter language. i think that romney, ryan and a lot of the donors don't think that behind closed doors a lot of this stuff is that offensive. i have talked to several of my right wing friends who when romney's tape came out said i wish romney talked like this more often. they are able to say this because they never lived on government assistance. they have lived on corporate welfare, but they don't see that as the same thing. for people who have lived on government assistance, it can be a soul-crushing thing. for instance, unemployment. i've been on unemployment. other people on unemployment know that it's just kind of a debilitating feeling to know you're not contributing at that moment. and the idea that that's your preferred state of being just shows the lack of understanding tha
